O título “Wild Thing” foi inspirado pela frase “doin’ the wild thing”, que é um eufemismo para sexo.
O produtor Michael Ross foi influenciado por Fab 5 Freddy dizendo “Come on baby let’s do the wild thing” no filme “She’s Gotta Have It” de Spike Lee, e pediu a Young MC que escrevesse a letra.
A faixa chegou ao segundo lugar na Billboard Hot 100 dos EUA em fevereiro de 1989 e foi número um na Nova Zelândia por duas semanas em abril do mesmo ano.
A canção vendeu mais de dois milhões de cópias nos Estados Unidos, conquistando certificação de disco duplo-platinum pela RIAA.
“Wild Thing” gerou pelo menos duas paródias: “Isle Thing”, do estilo “Gilligan’s Island” de “Weird Al” Yankovic (sua primeira paródia em rap), e “Child King”, da banda cristã ApologetiX.
